I. Introduction

The debate over the potential nuclear arms treaty between the P5+1 and Iran only addresses one aspect of the strategic competition

between Iran, its neighbors, the US and key European powers like Britain and France. The Gulf region is also the scene of a major arms

race in conventional forces, asymmetric forces, and conventionally armed ballistic missiles and artillery rockets. At the same time, Iran

is using arms transfer to non-state actors like the Hezbollah in Lebanon, pro-Assad forces in Syria, Hamas and the PIJ in Gaza, and the

Houthi in Yemen to expand its strategic influence while Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, and Qatar are using arms transfer both the

counter Iran and support various opponents of the Islamic State and Al Qaida.

So far the trends in arms sales and the total national military expenditures that underpin them sharply favor the Arab Gulf states. Ever

since the fall of the Shah, Iran has unable to compete in acquiring more arms because of sanctions, the politics of arms sales, and its lack

of surplus capital. While it has strengthened its own military industrial sector, and often been both effective and creative in modernizing

its weapons and keeping them operational over time, the end result has still been sharply limited. Iran lacks the resources, industrial

base, and scale of effort to compete with Arab Gulf states that can generally buy the most advanced weapons available.

This report compares both the relative scale of military spending in the Gulf region and the data available on regional arms transfers. As

is noted in this report, these data often have sharp limitations. The US State Department and Congressional Research Service no longer

issue declassified estimated of military spending and arms transfers, and NGO like the International Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS)

and the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) can only do so much using unclassified sources and with the staff

effort practical for NGOs. The UN Register of Conventional Arms has partial coverage at best, and its database is designed for official

use, rather than open analysis.

Nevertheless, enough past declassified data, and data from key NGOs like the IISS and SIPIRI is available to provide considerable

insight into the level of effort given Gulf countries can afford, and the broad trends in arms transfers. These data make a conclusive case

that the Arab Gulf states have had an overwhelming advantage of Iran in both military spending and access to modern arms. The relative

patterns in military spending ratios in military spending show that Saudi Arabia alone has spent at least four times as much on its military

forces as Iran and that the GCC has spent 6 to 7 times as much.

As might be expected, the combination of sanctions, political limits, and smaller resources has been far more favorable to the Arab Gulf

states than Iran in terms of arms transfers.

The data that the US, IISS, and SIPRI provide on actual weapons transfers by type have many gaps and uncertainties, but still reinforce

these conclusions. The Arab Gulf states have acquired and are acquiring some of the most advanced and effective weapons in the world.

Iran has essentially been forced to live in the past, often relying on systems originally delivered at the time of the Shah, or lower grade

imports, many of which reflect the technologies of the 1960s to 1980s.


One key issue that has yet to be addressed is how far Russia will now go in providing advanced arms like the S-300 to Iran and how

states like China will treat future arms transfers if the P5+1 and Iran do reach a final agreement on nuclear arms and UN sanctions on

arms transfers are modified or lifted.

Another key issue is the complex mix of tradeoffs involved in the fact that in spite of the rhetoric issued by the GCC, the Arab Gulf

states have done so little to ensure full interoperability, common training, common tactics, and the creation of integrated and common

facilities. These problems are matched to some extent by differences between Iran’s regular military services and its Revolutionary

Guards and a high level of corruption, overambitious project starts, and inefficiency within Iran’s defense-industrial complex, but there

is no way to make a meaningful comparative assessment of the problems in Iran’s efforts or those of the Arab Gulf states.


II. Military Expenditures

There are many different wars to measure the size and capability of military forces and the amount of money a given military power

spends on security is one key indicator of strength. It provides a rough measure of total military capability, and, when compared with

other expenditures, demonstrates the value its government places on its security. In the case of the Gulf both total national security

expenditures and arms transfer data are key indicators, although Iran is seeking to create a significant national defense industrial base.

There are no reliable comparative estimates of international military and security expenditures. NATO comes close in trying to make

fully comparable estimates using a standard definition, but some NATO members still do not comply and nations outside NATO use

very different definitions of what to include, sometimes deliberately misstate their spending, and either fail to properly report their full

procurement spending or use special pricing for the state-driven expenditures in their national security sector. UN reporting is erratic at

best, and no meaningful official source of comparable data has existed since the US government ceased to provide declassified estimates

after it cancelled its World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfers (WMEAT) report.

Most of the expenditure data now from NGOs available focus on expenditures in national military budgets, rather than include matching

data on internal security expenditures – although some countries do include extensive paramilitary forces in such budgets. This failure

to provide full estimates of national security spending has become steadily more important as nations increase spending on counter-

terrorism and other internal security spending.

The International Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS) Estimates

There are two major NGOs that do, however, provide broadly useful estimates of military expenditures, however, and whose data

provide at least a rough indication of the trends in spending on both conventional and asymmetric military forces in the Gulf. The first

is the International Institute of Strategic Studies (IISS),

Figure II.1 compares the IISS estimates of military expenditures of each GCC member during 1997-2012, along with those of Iraq, Yemen, and Iran.

Figure II.2 shows how the IISS estimates of total military expenditures of the GCC contrast to those of Iran. It is clear that the GCC, as a whole, spends

far more than Iran on its military. Furthermore, Saudi Arabia alone spent about 5.5 times more than Iran on its military and the United Arab Emirates

spent almost twice as much as Iran during this period. And, as a whole, the GCC combined spent just over 9 times more than Iran on its military.

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) Estimates

The second set of estimates comes from the Stockholm Institute of Peace Research Institute (SIPRI).

Figure II.3 compares the SIPRI estimates of military expenditures of each GCC member during 1997-2012, along with those of Iraq, Yemen, and Iran.

Figure II.4 shows how the SIPRI estimates of total military expenditures of the GCC contrast to those of Iran. It is clear that the GCC, as a whole,

spends far more than Iran on its military.


A comparison of Figure II.1 and II.3 show that the IISS and SIPRI estimates are usually very similar or identical but the some differences

do occur. There is no way to explain the differences, and neither the IISS nor SIPIRI fully explain the source or definition of their data.

In broad terms, however, the Arab lead over Iran is just as clear. Saudi Arabia spends some 4-5 times as much as Iran, and the UAE alone

has outspent Iran since 2007. If Saudi Arabia and the UAE – the two Arab Gulf states with the most modern Arab Gulf military forces are

combined – they have consistently spent more than six times as much as Iran.

As might be expected, Figure II.4 shows almost the same Arab Gulf and GCC lead over Iran as Figure II.2.

Figure II.5 compares the SIPRI estimates of military expenditures of each GCC member during 1997-2012, along with those of Iraq, Yemen, and Iran in

constant 2011 $US dollars. It shows that the Arab Gulf lead over Iran is not changed significantly when an attempt is made to compare spending over time

in constant dollars.

Figure II.6 shows how the SIPRI estimates of total military expenditures of the GCC contrast to those of Iran in constant $2011 dollars. Once Again, It is

clear that the GCC, as a whole, spends far more than Iran on its military.

Military Spending as a Percent of GDP and Comparative GDP

Figure II.7 compares IMF estimates of military expenditures of each GCC member as a percent of its total economy or Gross Domestic Product (GDP)

during 1997-2012, along with those of Iraq, Yemen, and Iran.

Figure II.8 compares IMF estimates of the total Gross Domestic Product (GDP) during 1997-2012, along with those of Iraq, Yemen, and Iran. This

provides an estimate of the total resources each state can draw upon in sizing its national security expenditures.

There are surprising wide differences in the estimate of GDP from different sources, and particularly when the estimates of international

institutions are compared to national estimates. Other sources do not, however, alter the broad trends reflected Figure II.7 and Figure

II.8. The Arab Gulf states have vastly larger cumulative economic resources to draw upon, and all major sources agree that they have

much smaller native populations to support. This gives them a major structural advantage over Iran in sizing their national security

efforts, and one they clearly take advantage of.

The percentages of gross domestic product (GDP) each country spends on defense are shown in Figure II.7. They provide another

indicator of the forces driving the military balance. It is important to note, however, that showing such percentage is only a measure of

effort in terms of the burden defense spending places on a given national economy. It does not account for the different size of such

economies, it does not indicate the impact of outside factors like sanctions, and it does not show the size the resulting expenditures.

For example, Figure II. 7 shows that the IMF estimates that Oman spent 16.36% of its GDP on its military in in 2012 —the highest of

any GCC and Gulf state. However, the data in Figure II.1 show that Oman’s total expenditures were only $12.334 billion, the third

highest of the Gulf States, and significantly less than Saudi Arabia’s $56.498 billion.


Iran’s Structural Limits in Spending on National Security

The limits to Iran’s military expenditures have been more a matter of necessity than intent, and this necessity has been as much a result

of international pressure and sanctions as the limits imposed by Iran’s GDP and its need to support a large native population. Unlike the

GCC states, Iran has been subject to slowly growing and now crippling sanctions, leading to a devalued currency, significant reductions

in oil exports, trade disruptions, higher inflation, and a shrinking economy, some problems other Gulf States are not facing.1

The impact of sanctions on Iran seems to be reflected by the fact that the trend line data in Figure II.7 suggest that the percentage of

Iran’s GDP spent on its military has been decreasing, and Figure II.8 shows that Iran’s GDP decreased after stronger sanctions were

applied in 2011.

In contrast, both GDP of the Arab states continued to increase through 2014, and this limited the extent to which they had to increase

the burden on their economies to pay for defense. Figure II.1 and Figure II.3 show that nearly all of the GCC states increased funding

for their military from 2010 onwards, some quite significantly.

It is scarcely surprising that the GCC collectively spends more on their military than Iran. Saudi Arabia, alone, spent nearly $56.5 billion

on its military in 2012, compared to Iran’s $10.6 billion. Collectively, the GCC nearly spent an overwhelming $98.5 billion on their

militaries, outspending Iran nearly 10:1. This spending superiority allows the GCC to invest in newer technology, weaponry and defense

acquisitions.

US Military Spending and the Gulf Military Balance

Comparisons that focus on the Arab Gulf states and Iran ignore the fact that outside powers also play a major role in the regional military

balance. Egypt and Jordan are coming to play a more direct role, Britain and France maintain a presence in the region, and the US is

actively involved in a military campaign in Iraq and has deployed naval forces to support the Saudi-led coalition operating in Yemen.

There is no way to estimate the portion of the military spending of such outside states that should be included in any assessment of the

total resources affecting the balance. It is clear, however, that the Arab Gulf states can benefit from a vastly greater pool of resources

than is apparent from either a comparison of their national defense spending or their arms imports.

Figure II.9 shows the level of US military spending in FY2016 dollars. This buys a massive mix of air-sea-land power projection capabilities, and even

though the US now plans to cap military spending after major cuts following the end of the major fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq, it is worth pointing

out that the total US spending for FY2016 is likely to be well over 30 times that of Iran, and can support US power projection capabilities indefinitely

into the future.

Figure II.10 shows that the US Department of Defense will spend $69.8 billion on research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) in FY2016,

and $107.7 billion on procurement. This means the US will spend more than 4 times as much on R&D alone as Iran will on its entire defense budget,

and can spend 6 times as much on procurement. The end result allows the Arab Gulf states to draw upon a vastly larger US R&D and production base

than Iran, take advantage of US economies of scale, and do so at minimal risk since they only have to buy mature US programs -- and can buy from

competing sources if the US does not meet their needs -- while Iran must take serious risks in attempt to develop and produce its own designs.


There is no doubt that the Arab Gulf states would make far more effective use of their resources and these opportunities if they were

able to achieve a higher degree of standardization, integration, interoperability.

Iran has also been innovative in using its resources to acquire missiles, build-up its asymmetric warfare capabilities in the Gulf, and use

money, advisors, and arms transfers to win influence elsewhere in the region. Iran however, has internal divisions and problems with

corruption and waste that limit the effectiveness of its military spending; and compete to some extent with the problems growing out of

the lack of real-world unity in the Gulf Cooperation Council and Arab forces.

II. Arms Imports

As is the case with military expenditures, the GCC states, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon – and to a lesser extent Iraq – have had a major

advantage over Iran in arms imports ever since the fall of the Shah. Since 1980, the US and other Western states have sought to block

or limit transfers of key arms and technology to Iran – including munitions, modernization kits, spare parts, and advanced dual-use

technology. Russia and China have also shown restraint in exporting advanced arms, and UN sanctions have further restricted Iran’s

options.

Iran has attempted to counter by setting up a large mix of covert purchasing networks during the Iran-Iraq War, bought from third nations

with fewer restrictions, and bought on the black market. It only had limited success, however, even in paying a premium prices while

the Arab states had open access at market prices. Similarly, Iran made some successful efforts to improve its industrial based, but these

had limited success and involved massive investment costs and severe diseconomies of scale.

These trends can be measured in two key ways. One is to estimate the total value of the arms deliveries and new arms orders being

provide to each Gulf state. The other is to analyze reports on the actual transfer of arms and key military technologies. Both methods

are useful, but both also present significant problems in the reliability of the data provided.

A Lack of Reliable Official Data on Total Arms Transfer Expenditures

There are no current reliable metrics on the overall trends in arms transfer expenditures. Only one country has provided extensive official

data on global sales in the past, and its reporting has been cut back and now has substantial gaps. The US Arms Control and Disarmament

Agency (ACDA) once published a much more comprehensive assessments called World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfer

(WMEAT), but publication became erratic and the last version seems to have been published on-line in 2012.

(http://www.state.gov/t/avc/rls/rpt/wmeat/2012/.), and only covered the period from 1999 to 2009.

The US Congressional Research Service did publish a declassified intelligence estimate called Conventional Arms Transfers to

Developing Nations, after WMEAT was cancelled. It did not provide anything like the same detail, but it did provide a detailed break

out of total arms transfers and orders for each MENA country. The CRS has not published an update to this report since August 2012,

and the last report covered the 2004-2011 period. Even so, the totals are still useful in showing the scale of the Arab Gulf advantage

over Iran.

Figures III.1 to III.2 show the trends from 2004-2011 in terms of both new orders and actual deliveries. They show that the GCC states has a massive

advantage over Iran in actual arms deliveries of 80:1 in in 2008-2011 and 25:1 in 2004-2007.

Figures III.3 to III.4 show that that the GCC states advantage over Iran in new arms orders was of 252:1 in in 2008-2011 and 15:1 in 2004-2007. This

ensures that the GCC states will have a massive advantage over Iran in the near term.

As has been touched upon earlier, the GCC advantage in importing weapons and military technology has been partially offset by the

lack of standardized, and to some extent interoperability in GCC and allied forces that come from each country buying a different mix

http://www.state.gov/t/avc/rls/rpt/wmeat/2012/


of weapons and equipment from different suppliers, as well as from the lack of standardization in doctrine, training, supply, and logistics.

At the same time, the GCC states benefit from access to outside training facilities, military experience, and access to advanced US

Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (IS&R) capabilities and command, control, communications, computer, and battle

management capabilities (C4I/BM). They also do not face technological risk since they can choose between proven systems while any

Iranian produced systems that are not exact copies of foreign systems mean Iran must assume the risk of problems in performance,

delivery delays, and cost escalation.

Commercial and Media Reporting

Various commercial services and defense media also report arms sales, but such reporting is extremely erratic and often is little more

than a summary of manufacturer publicity reporting. The reporting by IHS Jane’s is a partial exception

NGO Reporting: the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute’s Arms Transfer Database seems to represent the most accurate outside NGO

assessment, but any NGO faces significant cost issues and data collection limits relative to US intelligence. It is not surprising therefore

that the SIPRI numbers are sometimes very different from the US numbers and they consistently are substantially smaller, although they

exhibit the same basic trends.

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute’s Arms Transfer Database calculates arms transfers using SIPRI Trend Indicator

Values (TIVs) expressed in US$ millions at constant 1990 US dollars. As a result, the numbers are not comparable with the CRS

estimates. They do, however, show very similar trends in relative effort.

Figure III.6 shows the level of arms transfers between 1997 and 2014. The Arab Gulf states in the GC have had a massive lead over Iran in arms

imports. The gap is so great in given periods that the GCC states lead Iran by 6.9:1 during 1997-2007, 10.4:1 in 2004-2008, 33.1:1 in 2009-2013, and

27.5:1 in 2007-2014,

Figure III.7 shows transfers by both source and recipient country between 2004 and 2008. The Arab Gulf states had a clear advantage in terms of both

total spending and access to modern US and European arms. Even though SIPRI seems to sharply underestimate the Saudi total, Saudi Arabia’s imports

alone were twice as large as Iran’s, and the UAE’s weremore than seven times larger.

Figure III.8 reflects that same sharp buildi up in arms imports during 2009-2014 reflected in the IISS data during 2009-2014. The gap between Iran

and the Arab Gulf states did, however, widened sharply. Saudi Arabia’s arms imports were more than 18 times larger than 1ran’s. The UAE’s imports

were16 times larger.

These figures give the GCC massive advantage over a very extended period in both the quantity and quality of arms transfers.

The driving factor between the Arab Gulf advantage is that the GCC arms imports are not limited by sanctions, and this allows the GCC

states –as well as Arab states like Jordan and Egypt -- to take full advantage of international arms sales and arms transfer agreements in

buying upgrades and purchasing of more advanced arms. In contrast, Iran doesn’t have access to many of the markets it needs to obtain


replacement parts for its weaponry and armor that originally came from the West. Sanctions have forced Iran to reverse engineer parts—

and in some cases, entire weapons---to maintain its military force. This has forced Iran to try to find “work arounds” to keep its equipment

running, make uncertain procurements and modernization efforts, try to produce parts of uncertain quality at high cost, and to an

expensive black market in order to find vital parts for its military. It has led Iran to create a larger military industrial base, but at an

extremely high unit cost because of the lack of scale, and to attempt efforts that were too advanced for its industrial base to fully support.

Actual Weapons and Military Technology Transfers

The data on actual weapons transfers are sometimes contradictory and often have significant gaps. Nevertheless, enough useful data are

available to provide a further indicate of the advantage that the Arab Gulf states have had over Iran. If one looks at a range of sources,

one can also obtain considerable insight into which services have modernized most quickly, and how each regional state is modernizing

its forces.

Congressional Research Service Data on Actual Transfers of Arms and Military Technology

The CRS issues a regular set of reports on each major Gulf state, some of which provide considerable detail on US arms transfers. For

example, a report by Christopher M. Blanchard indicates that Saudi Arabia ordered $90.435 billion in major new arms transfers from

the US alone between October 2010 and October 2014. These arms sales are shown in Figure III.8, and include some of the most

modern weapons in US inventory.2

Similarly, the CRS reports that UAE – which has some of the most effective armed forces in the Gulf – has also placed substantial orders

for US weapons and technology. Kenneth Katzman provided the following list of major arms orders and summary of their impact:3

From 2007 to 2010, the UAE agreed to acquire more U.S. defense articles and services through the Foreign Military Sales program—$10.4 billion worth—

than any other country in the world except Saudi Arabia. Until 2008, the most significant buy was the March 2000 purchase of 80 U.S. F-16 aircraft,

equipped with the Advanced Medium Range Air to Air Missile (AMRAAM) and the HARM (High Speed Anti-Radiation Missile), a deal exceeding $8

billion…Defense industry sources say that the equipment and capabilities on the F-16s sold to the UAE were highly sophisticated. Earlier, in September

2006, the United States sold UAE High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) and Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMs), valued at about

$750 million.

Among recent major sales:

In March 2009, the UAE signed agreements with Boeing Co. and Lockheed Martin Corp. to buy $3 billion worth of military transport aircraft

(C-17 and C-130, respectively).

On November 4, 2010, the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) notified Congress of two potential sales: $140 million worth of

ATACMs and associated support; and a possible $5 billion worth of AH-64 Apache helicopters

(30 helicopters, remanufactured to Block III configuration).15


On November 30, 2011, DSCA notified (transmittal number 10-56) a potential sale of 4,900 Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAM) kits with an

estimated value of $304 million. The widespread perception was that the munitions could potentially be used to strike hard targets, such as nuclear

facilities in Iran, although there are no indications the UAE would conduct such a strike on its own. The United States previously sold the UAE

JDAM kits worth $326 million in January 3, 2008.

On April 25, 2013, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, visiting UAE, reportedly finalized a sale to UAE of an additional 25-30 F-16 aircraft and

associated “standoff” air-to-ground munitions. The sale was in conjunction with similar weapons sales to Israel and Saudi Arabia, and which

Secretary Hagel and other officials clearly indicated were intended to signal U.S. and partner resolve to Iran.16 The agreement came about one

week after President Obama met visiting Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Shaykh Mohammad at the White House on April 16, 2013. A related possible

sale was notified on January 24, 2014, for equipment upgrades to the F-16 being purchased, with an estimated value of $270 million.

On October 15, 2013, DSCA (transmittal no. 13-48) notified a potential sale of numerous precision-guided missiles for its F-16 fleet, including

20 of the advanced ATM-84 SLAM-ER Telemetry missile and 5,000 GBU-39/B “bunker buster” bombs. (The sale of the SLAM-ER would

represent the first sale of that weapon to a Gulf state.) The principal contractors will be Boeing and Raytheon, and the estimated cost of the

munitions is $4 billion.

Press reports say the UAE and other Gulf states are interested in purchasing the advanced F-35 “Joint Strike Fighter” if and when the United

States approves it for sale to the Gulf states. The UAE is said to also be evaluating the French-made Rafale and the Boeing F/A-18, but has

reportedly ruled out purchasing the British-made Typhoon.

Possible Drone Sale? At the IDEX defense show in February 2013, the UAE reportedly agreed to a commercial sale, worth about $200 million,

for Predator unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), although the system apparently would be unarmed and for surveillance only. Still, Defense

Department officials say they have not completed formulating a policy for the sale of such equipment to the Gulf states and it is possible that the

deal might not be permitted by DOD.

The UAE is pivotal to the U.S. effort to forge a Gulf-wide missile defense network because the UAE has ordered the Terminal High Altitude Air Defense

System (THAAD), the first sale ever of that sophisticated missile defense system. A sale of THAAD equipment was first announced September 9, 2008,

valued at about $7 billion. However, subsequent negotiations altered the purchase somewhat; on November 2, 2012, DSCA notified Congress of a potential

sale to the UAE of additional THAAD equipment: 9 launchers, 48 missiles, and associated equipment with total estimated value of $1.135 billion.19 In

September 2013, the Defense Department awarded a $3.9 billion contract to Lockheed Martin for about 300 THAAD missiles, of which about 192 would

be exported to the UAE—suggesting the UAE purchase has increased since the November 2012 DSCA notification.20 Also on November 5, 2012, DSCA

announced the first sale of the THAAD to neighboring Qatar.

Among significant other recent missile defense sales to the UAE are the advanced Patriot antimissile systems (PAC-3, up to $9 billion value, announced

December 4, 2007). Also announced on September 9, 2008, were sales to UAE of vehicle mounted “Stinger” anti-aircraft systems ($737 million value).

Kuwait has not attempted to create forces on the scale of Saudi Arabia and the UAE, but its purchases have still been significant. Since

its liberation in 1991, the CRS reports that Kuwait’s major purchases from the US include:4

218 M1A2 tanks at a value of $1.9 billion in 1993. Delivery was completed in 1998.

A 1992 sale of 5 Patriot anti-missile fire units, including 25 launchers and 210 Patriot missiles, valued at about $800 million. Delivery was completed by

1998. Some of them were used to intercept Iraqi short-range missiles launched at Kuwait in the 2003 war.


A 1992 sale of 40 FA-18 combat aircraft.

A September 2002 sale of 16 AH-64 (Apache) helicopters equipped with the Longbow fire-control system, valued at about $940 million.

A December 4, 2007, Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) notification to Congress reported a sale to Kuwait of 80 PAC-3 (Patriot) missiles

and 60 PAC-2 missiles and upgrades, valued at about $1.3 billion.

On September 9, 2008, DSCA notified a sale of 120 AIM-120C-7 Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missiles (AMRAAM), along with equipment and

services, with a total value of $178 million.

On August 11, 2010, the Administration notified Congress of another potential Patriot-related sale—of 209 Patriot “Guidance Enhanced Missile-T” (GEM-

T) missiles valued at $900 million. The prime contractor for that system is Raytheon.

On February 27, 2012, the Administration notified Congress of a potential sale of 80 AIM-9X-2 SIDEWINDER missiles, and associated parts and support,

with an estimated value of $105 million. The sale, if completed, would help Kuwait modernize its fighter aircraft and enhance interoperability with U.S.

aircraft.

On July 20, 2012, the Administration notified a potential sale of 60 Patriot Advanced Capability (“PAC-3”) missiles and 20 Patriot launching stations,

plus associated equipment. The total value of the sale could reach $4.2 billion. On December 31, 2013, DoD said Lockheed Martin would deliver 14 of

the missiles and seven launcher modification kits by June 30, 2016.

On April 17, 2013, DSCA notified a potential sale to Kuwait of one C-17 cargo aircraft and associated equipment, with an estimated total cost of $371

million.

On December 4, 2013, DSCA notified a possible sale to Kuwait of technical support to its U.S.-made F-18s for an estimated cost of about $150 million.

Kuwait is said to be considering adding more FA-18 aircraft, although it is evaluating and might instead order the Rafale or the Typhoon. The latter two

combat aircraft are made by European manufacturers.

Oman has bought many of its arms from the UK, but the CRS reports it has also has made some major purchases from the US:5

F-16s: In October 2001, Oman purchased (with its own funds) 12 U.S.-made F-16 C/D aircraft from new production. Along with associated weapons

(Harpoon and AIM missiles), a podded reconnaissance system, and training, the sale was valued at about $825 million; deliveries were completed in 2006.

Oman made the purchase in part to keep pace with its Gulf neighbors, including UAE and Bahrain, that had bought F-16s. The Defense Security

Cooperation Agency (DSCA) notified Congress on August 4, 2010, of a potential sale to Oman of up to 18 additional F-16s and associated equipment and

support. The sale could be worth up to $3.5 billion to the main manufacturer, Lockheed Martin.11 Oman signed a contract with Lockheed Martin for 12

of the aircraft in December 2011, with a contract for an additional six still possible. The twelve are to be delivered through 2014. On December 11, 2012,

DSCA notified a sale of weapons systems for the F-16, including 27 AMRAAMs, 162 GBU laser-guided bombs, and other weaponry and equipment,

with a total estimated value of about $117 million.

In July 2006, according to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA), Oman bought the JAVELIN anti-tank system, at a cost of about $48 million.

In November 2010, DSCA notified Congress of a possible sale of up to $76 million worth of countermeasures equipment and training to protect the C-

130J that Oman is buying from Lockheed Martin under a June 2009 commercial contract. The prime manufacturer of the equipment is Northrop Grumman.

Another possible sale of countermeasures equipment —in this case for Oman’s aircraft that fly Sultan Qaboos—was notified on May 15, 2013.


On October 19, 2011, DSCA notified Congress of a potential sale to Oman of AVENGER fire units, Stinger missiles, and Advanced Medium Range Air

to Air Missiles (AMRAAMs)—all of which are to help Oman develop a layered air defense system. The total value of the potential sale, including

associated equipment and training, is about $1.25 billion.

On June 13, 2012, DSCA notified a sale of various types of AIM “Sidewinder” air-to-air missiles to modernize Oman’s F-16 fleet and enhance its

interoperability with U.S. forces.

On May 21, 2013, Secretary of State John Kerry visited Oman reportedly in part to help finalize a sale to Oman of ground-based air defense systems made

by Raytheon. The equipment has an estimated value of $2.1 billion. DSCA has not, to date, made a notification to Congress about the potential sale

Qatar has made French purchases, but has also bought some advanced arms from the US. The CRS reports that the proposed US sales

during 2012-2013 included:6

UH-60M BLACK HAWK Helicopters, $1,112 million, June 13, 2012

MH-60R and MH-60S SEAHAWK Helicopters, $2,500 million, June 26, 2012

Bahrain a major strategic partner of the United States because it provides key naval and air base facilities, but the CRS reports that,7

its total government budget is only about $6 billion per year, “allowing modest amounts of national funds to be used for purchases of major combat systems.

About 85% of Bahrain’s defense equipment is of U.S.-origin.

In 1998, Bahrain purchased 10 U.S.-made F-16Cs from new production, worth about $390 million. It later purchased 12 more of the system, bringing its

F-16 fleet to 22. In 1999 and 2009, the United States sold Bahrain Advanced Medium-Range Air-to- Air Missiles (AMRAAMs) to arm the F-16s.

An August 2000 sale of 30 Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMs, a system of short-range ballistic missiles fired from a multiple rocket launcher),

valued at about $70 million, included an agreement for joint U.S.-Bahraini control of the weapon. That arrangement was reached in part to allay U.S.


congressional concerns about possible U.S. promotion of missile proliferation in the region.

In 2007, the United States sold Bahrain several hundred “Javelin” anti-armor missiles worth up to $42 million; 9 UH-60M Blackhawk helicopters worth

up to $252 million; and 6 Bell search and recovery helicopters, valued at about $160 million.

Section 581 of the FY1990 foreign operations appropriation act (P.L. 101-167) made Bahrain the only Gulf state eligible to receive the Stinger shoulder-

fired anti-aircraft missile, and the United States has sold Bahrain about 70 Stingers since 1990. (This authorization has been repeated in subsequent

legislation.)

These lists of transfers by weapons systems vary sharply by country and report, but also provide a tangible picture of both the scale of

the qualitative improvements to Arab Gulf forces and the level of US strategic commitment to the Arab Gulf states. As the previous

Figures have shown, Britain and France have also made major sales, again giving the Arab Gulf states a major edge in weapons quality

and military technology over Iran.

Mixed Official Data on US Arms Transfers: Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DCSA)

The US provides more detailed reporting on major requests for the transfer or sale of US arms through its Defense Security Cooperation

Agency (DCSA) (http://www.dsca.mil/major-arms-sales), although these are figures for proposed sales and not for actual sales. The

DCSA reports total orders and deliveries by year for actual sales and orders by country

(http://www.dsca.mil/sites/default/files/fiscal_year_series_-_30_september_2013.pdf and

http://www.dsca.mil/sites/default/files/historical_facts_book_-_30_september_2013.pdf ), but it has not published a new volume since

2013.

These data are shown in Figure III.9. While they do not provide comparisons with other sellers, they do show the massive scale of US

arms transfers to the Gulf. During one five year period in the DCSA reports – 2009 to 2013 -- the DCSA reports that the US provided

the following FMS arms transfers to the GCC states:

Bahrain signed $372,341 million in new arms agreements and took $421,117 million in arms deliveries.

Kuwait signed $3,386,192 million in new arms agreements and took $1,503,455 million in arms deliveries

Oman signed $2,355,850 million in new arms agreements and took $220,779 million in arms deliveries

Qatar signed $250,222 million in new arms agreements and took $103,163 million in arms deliveries

Saudi Arabia signed $47,319,216 million in new arms agreements and took $10,265,488 million in arms deliveries

The UAE signed $15,261,826 million in new arms agreements and took $3,469,495 million in arms deliveries

They also indicate that GCC signed a grand total of $68.9 billion in new FMS arms agreements and took $15,983.6 billion in arms

deliveries.

http://www.dsca.mil/sites/default/files/historical_facts_book_-_30_september_2013.pdf


Figure III.10 shows another aspect of DCSA reporting. It shows the proposed packages of major US arms sales reported by the

Department of Defense to US Congress. These descriptions of individual states are based on proposals, not final contracts, and only

cover major US sales. It is clear, however, from Figure III.10 that the US has treated the Arab Gulf states are real strategic partners and

has given, and is giving, them a vast lead in military weapons and technology over Iran – a lead reinforced by the fact US sales help

make the Gulf states interoperable with both other Gulf states and US power projection capabilities.

NGO Efforts to Summarize all Major Weapons Transfers

The IISS and SIPRI also make efforts to assess major arms transfers, and these efforts cover all of the Gulf states – not just the US. Both

highlight the advantage the Arab Gulf states have over Iran in access to modern arms.

Figure III.11 shows the recent arms transfers to key Gulf countries reported by the IISS in various editions of its annual Military

Balance since 2013, as well as some reported by other sources. These data sometimes include sales or transfers that are reported by

manufacturers before the final contrast is signed or do not materializes for other reasons, but give a broad indication of the impact of

outside technology transfer on the balance. The coverage is limited, but still provides useful insights into the trends in the region.

Figure III.12 uses the SIPRI Arms Transfers Database to show arms transfers during 2000-2015 – the period that flags the most modern

arms transfers and agreements affecting the regional balance. The SIPRI Arms Transfers Database attempts to provide information on

“all transfers of major conventional weapons from 1950 to the most recent full calendar year. It seeks to “address a range of questions,

including:

Who are the suppliers and recipients of major conventional weapons?

What weapons have been exported or imported by specific suppliers or recipients?

How have the relationships between different suppliers and recipients changed over time?

Where do countries in conflict get their weapons from?

How do states implement their export control regulations?

Where are potentially destabilizing build ups of weapons occurring?

What is the relationship between access to natural resources and arms transfers?”

Using these data does requires considerable military and technical expertise to determine the comparative value of given transfers, and

careful research to compare the SIPRI data with other sources. SIPRI is correct noting, however, that while spending on arms transfers

makes comparisons of levels of effort simple, it does not provide a clear picture of trends in deterrence and warfighting capability or the

nature of the military balance.


Going to the SIPRI data base on actual arms trans, and either searching by type of weapon or by expanding the data in Figure III.12 to

cover the entire period from 1980 – the end of the Iran-Iraq War – to 2015, and while the data are complex, provides a good way to trace

the broader patterns in Gulf military modernization. It also highlights the advantages the Arab Gulf states have had over Iran in detail,

and the leading role that Saudi Arabia and the UAE play in Arab military Gulf military modernization.
